This capability was required for Gremlin versions older than 2.18.2, because our runc drivers would run sidecars with a "capabilities-add" request that was unaccompanied by a "drop-all" request and CAP_NET_RAW was among those requested by default.

Incidentally, we've depended on CAP_NET_RAW since 2.40.1 for another purpose: dependency discovery (when gremlin.collect.dns=true). Update the description for when and why this capability is needed.

This capability was required for Gremlin versions older than 2.18.2, because we would inherit the default capabilities of the container runtime, which sometimes included `CAP_NET_RAW`.
